About Argus Community – Faith Mission Alcohol Crisis Center
The Faith Mission Alcohol Crisis Center of Argus Community provides medically monitored withdrawal and stabilization services in South Ozone Park, New York. They’re sandwiched between two local parks. Their facility has 36 beds and operates seven days a week, 24 hours per day. They receive federal grant funding.
Men and women must be 18 years of age or older to receive services. To be admitted you must be intoxicated or suffering from mild withdrawals that is in conjunction with a situational crisis. You will also be eligible if you have a history of withdrawal complications.
Before beginning treatment, you will undergo a comprehensive assessment and a health screening. This will help their staff determine if this is the appropriate level of care for you. Your treatment plan will also be developed based on this assessment and screening.
Their staff will consist of a board certified medical doctor, registered nurse, licensed practical nurses and physician assistants, as well as certified alcohol and substance abuse counselors. They will monitor your withdrawal symptoms and monitor your vital signs. Once you are feeling better, you will be encouraged to attend individual and group therapy sessions.
I like that they provide gender specific service. This will help men and women focus on issues and topics that affect their specific gender. Medication management will also be available. Once you have been stabilized and have completed your medically monitored withdrawal, they will give you a referral to your next level of care.
